Possible Causes

Insufficient rinse time, Brine concentration too high, Drain line restriction reducing rinse flow, Incorrect salt dose setting

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Do not drink water that tastes strongly of salt; use an alternate source until resolved.

  • Run extra rinse: Manually advance the Ecowater softener to the fast rinse step and allow a full rinse cycle to complete.
  • Check drain flow: Ensure the drain line is not restricted and that rinse water flows freely.
  • Verify salt settings: Confirm the programmed salt dose and brine refill time match Ecowater specifications for your model and resin volume.
  • Inspect brine system: Ensure the brine safety float is functioning and not allowing excessive brine into the resin tank.
